           - add `django_db_views` to `INSTALLED_APPS`
           - use `makeviewmigrations` command to create migrations for view models
        
        
        ### How to create view in your database?
        
        - To create your view use DBView class, remember to set view definition attribute.
        
        
            from django_db_views.db_view import DBView
            
            class Balance(DBView):
        
                virtual_card = models.ForeignKey(
                    VirtualCard, on_delete=models.DO_NOTHING, related_name='virtual_cards'
                )
                total_discount = models.DecimalField(max_digits=12, decimal_places=2)
                total_returns = models.DecimalField(max_digits=12, decimal_places=2)
                balance = models.DecimalField(max_digits=12, decimal_places=2)
                
                view_definition = """
                    SELECT
                        row_number() over () as id,  # Django requires column called id
                        virtual_card.id as virtual_card_id,
                        sum(...) as total_discount,
                    ...
                """
            
                class Meta:
                    managed = False
                    db_table = 'virtual_card_balance'
        
        
        - The view definition must be a string or a callable. 
        Callable view definition example:
        
        
            view_definition = lambda: str(SomeModel.objects.all().query)
        
        
        using callable allow you to write view definition using ORM. 
        
        ### How view migrations work? 
           - DBView working as regular django model. You can use it in any query. 
           - It's using Django code, view-migrations looks like regular migrations. 
           - It relies on `db_table` names. 
           - `makeviewmigrations` command finds previous migration for view.
              - if there is no such migration then script create a new migration
              - if previous migration exists but no change in `view_definition` is detected nothing is done
              - if previous migration exists, then script will use previous `view_definition` for backward operation, and creates new migration.
